These heavy-duty storage cabinets feature sturdy, welded steel frames and durable plastic drawers. Available with 9, 16, 20, or 28 drawers, each cabinet is suitable for storing a range of optomechanical and electrical components as well as optics. Our 9- and 16-drawer cabinets feature a powder-coated, glossy, black metallic finish. Our 20- and 28-drawer cabinets feature a powder-coated, glossy, gray metallic finish.

These cabinets can be stacked on top of each other without tools; four small feet on the bottom of each cabinet fit snugly into matching receptacles on the top of each cabinet. The cabinets can be mounted directly to a laboratory wall via four rear slots (see Figure 1.1). Cabinets can also be mounted in our equipment racks, where a maximum of 7 cabinets can be mounted on RK4101 shelves within the rack. In addition, our 19" rack chassis for optical table workstations can mount these cabinets.

Hi, I would like to know if I can get a .doc ou .pdf file that contains names or pictures of all optomecanics parts, so I can print them on adhesive label to identify our drawer of all size? thank you very much and have a great day, Mikael

Thank you for contacting Thorlabs. We provide images and CAD PDF's of nearly every item in our catalog. If you have already purchased items that you intend to place in the cabinet, you could get their part numbers from the sales order we would have provided to you. Then, you could search those part numbers in our catalog and print out their images. The CAD PDF's will likely have an image of the part as well.

Is it possible to order extra dividers?

I find your cabinets extremely useful in the lab and have even bought many sets for my workshop at home. For the optics lab, it would be great if you guys sold the same style cabinet with short, wide drawers that would work for the standard packaging for fiber optics components like your beamsplitters, circulators, etc. It would help greatly in keeping my components organized.

Response from Bweh at Thorlabs USA: For now you may consider the 19" rack drawers like the RAU200 on the following page: http://www.thorlabs.com/newgrouppage9.cfm?objectgroup_id=1455. That is a good idea we will look into.

Hi, The cabinets come with small plastic dividers for the drawers. It would be great if I could buy more of those! Especially for the S19228 cabinet. David

Response from Chris at Thorlabs: Thank you for your feedback. I will see if we can add this to our standard offerings, but in the mean time, I will contact you directly about getting these as separate components.
